Overview

MISSONI EYEWEAR is the eyewear line of the Italian fashion house MISSONI. In 1953, Ottavio and Rosa Missoni started a knitwear business in the province of Varese, and Angela Missoni currently leads the brand’s direction as creative director. Under a licensing agreement with Safilo, the collection includes prescription eyewear and sunglasses. At the brand’s core is the idea that “Comfort is the mother and soul of Missoni” (comfort is Missoni’s mother and soul).
